I am not happy, but will accept, this bill. It is a basis for establishing and growing the 2A in this socialist hellhole.

Nor I will not cry if Rahm kills this bill, either. We won’t have constitutional carry (despite what you read). But the vast majority of the state will be free of the yoke of Cook county. And then Cook/Chicago will spend years squandering their EBT funds in the courts.

The plus side is that it may be the best that can be had, given the circumstances.

Small steps, small steps. All these anti-gun laws didn't appear overnight, they were incrementally implemented. We can use the same tactics in reverse. Whatever restrictions they add, we counter with stuff like CCWs allowed on school yards, restaurants, parks, etc.
